Welcome!
I'm so glad you are visiting my website! Wish we were sitting chatting at The Cheesecake Factory (my favorite restaurant), but this will have to do for now! Although a piece of their red velvet cheesecake sounds so good!
I'm excited about my three new books! All three titles can be adapted for full retreats, conferences, or for a one-time speaking event. Nothing thrills me more than sharing my heart. The Secret Child is my story of adoption discovery at age forty-one. It's been an amazing and unexpected journey! Born For This is my ministry heartbeat. An encouraging message of discovering your dreams and visions, and learning how to funnel them into reality. Beauty Secrets is not just about make-up! Based on little known verses in Proverbs, this book encourages women all ages to thrive for health and beauty from the inside out. Let's do a SPA Retreat together! Remind me to tell you about the wonderful cat litter facial! Yup, I said cat litter!
By clicking on the books above, you can read more about each book and purchase either an e-book version, or a paperback copy through amazon.com or barnesandnoble.com if you wish.
Browse through the website for more speaking topics, my personal bio information, recommendations, and more! Thanks for stopping by, and I'd love to be the speaker for your next event!
Kirsten
Kirsten Hart has been able to travel with some of America's premier Christian singing groups, including Re-Creation, Eternity, The Spurrlows, FRIENDS (the back-up group for Grammy Award winner Larnelle Harris), The Richard Roberts TV Singers, as a Praise and Worship Leader for International Crusades, and on TBN's This Is Your Day telecast.
She has had the amazing opportunity to sing on television, in hundreds of churches, and as part of international crusades. She has shared her heart before thousands. She also counts it a privilege to have sung for FOCUS ON THE FAMILY and COMPASSION INTERNATIONAL events, Campmeetings, Statewide Conventions, and more.
Kirsten has spoken in churches and for Women's Ministry Events across the country for the past twenty years. Recently, God chose to give her a new life story in a surprising way. As she is daily walking out her story, she brings a message of grace, forgiveness, and miracles!

Hello Kirsten,
Your story sounds amazing and courageous! I believe there is power in "story telling". My mission in life is to encourage women to tell "their story".
Sharing our life takes courage. To be transparent gives us the overcoming power to walk in Light. I am amazed at the freedom I have found in sharing my story.
Share your story!
Anne
"Can you imagine receiving a letter that began to reveal how God had woven your life together? Certainly God has written stories on all of our hearts. However, sometimes a story comes along that just must be shared. Kirsten Hart has one of those stories.
Beginning with a simple search for her birth certificate, Kirsten began to see how God had miraculously molded her into the person she is today. I highly recommend inviting Kirsten to share her story with your congregation. It will be a life-changing experience!"

"In today's self-seeking society, it is refreshing to come across a ministry that is dedicated to serving others. This is such a ministry. Kirsten Hart is truly gifted at teaching and motivating others in creative hospitality. Her joyful spirit and enthusiasm are contagious! And the ideas she shares are practical yet imaginative."

"Dave and Kirsten are two of the most faithful people I know. They are faithful with their talent, their giving, and their love for Christ. These two wonderfully talented singers are one of God's best kept secrets! They have been nothing but a blessing in my life!"
"Kirsten's story is awe-inspiring. What would make most of us fall to pieces, she has instead chosen to use as an example of determination and fortitude. She made lemonade out of lemons, and she did it with a SMILE.
Kirsten is so much fun to be around and she has a gift for making everyone feel right at home. Whether she is talking about her latest thrift store finds, or taunting us about the dessert she just ate, she does it with grace, charm, and wit. I'm so glad to call her my friend!"

"It is with pleasure that I recommend Mrs. Kirsten Hart as a special guest at your church. Recently we had the privilege of having Mrs. Hart speak and sing at our Mother's Day Brunch. All attendees truly enjoyed her time of ministry.
Kirsten is a very professional singer and speaker with an obvious gifting from the Lord. Her authentic and transparent style of ministry made her relatable to all ages. Her message was delivered in an engaging manner that captivated her audience. I believe her ministry in song and by testimony honored the Lord.
Her positive first-rate ministry at our church is an indication of how she would minister to all congregations. Therefore, I highly recommend Kirsten to be given the opportunity to minister to your people."
"Kirsten spoke for our Women's Retreat recently and we fell in love with her and were deeply touched by her story and by the wonderful loving heart that is so evident in her speaking, her music, and her attitude.
Her message of God's amazing work in her life combined with the scripture she uses brings a powerful messsage of hope and possibility for a woman's life. Having Kirsten as a speaker and singer for any women's group will be a blessing for the women you are ministering to!"

Along with my three books, I also have other speaking themes available including: THRIVE WHILE ALIVE, EVERYDAY HOSPITALITY, and MEMORIES OF CHRISTMAS. I am also open to designing my presentation or retreat to your own specified theme. Just let me know a few months ahead of time.
All six topics easily fit a one-time event, a conference keynote or break-out session, or a full weekend retreat!
Is it me, or do we always get the unexpected guest when we're just not ready?! In a perfect world, in a perfect house, with the perfect schedule, we could be the perfect hostess!
Everyday Hospitality is a retreat designed to encourage us to get motivated to reach out to others in new and creative ways both IN our homes, as well as finding new ways of reaching OUT to others in unexpected yet life changing ways!
God desires for us to be thriving, and full of life. Yet, it can be in the dormant, quiet seasons that God is pruning us, and letting our roots grow deep. So many of life's valuable lessons can be learned in those seemingly unproductive times.
I believe that God doesn't waste a day in our lives. He can truly work 'all things together for our good'.
I'm a firm believer that we live through different seasons in our lives. While we all hope for Spring, and a time of flourishing, we realize that our Winters are necessary for the beauty of the coming season.
A Christmas Spectacular multi-media event for Christmas Banquets and special events. Bringing this presentation to YOUR CHURCH, I will be touring the country November through December with this cutting edge program.
MEMORIES OF CHRISTMAS will feature favorite TV and Film Christmas moments along with live singing and speaking to stir your memory, and help you remember special memories and the true meaning of the season!

"I'm sorry, Mrs. Hart, we have no records of your birth." These were the words I heard over the phone when I was trying to locate a copy of my birth certificate for a new passport. "Have you checked with the Adoption Registry Office?" was the following question.
ADOPTION? What? I was 41 years old. I knew who my parents were. Or did I? Why would someone suggest that I talk with an Adoption Registry Office? I just simply wanted my birth certificate, thank you very much.
That phone call led me on a new journey of discovery and secrets. I was a Secret Child! Who was I? Who was my birth mother? Did I have other siblings?What was my story?
The Secret Child is my personal exploration of discovering my new identity and unveiling a secret that God had kept for 41 years. A secret so dear, yet so mysterious. "...Find out more..." were the words I kept hearing echo through my heart. Indeed I did find out more. More than I ever dreamed imaginable.
Throughout my journey I decided that the 'Joy of the Lord' would be my strength. I had to trust that God was just giving me a new life story.
How can avocados, King Solomon, mascara, cat litter, banana peels, little known verses in Proverbs, H2O, Dead Sea Mud, and vegetables all be related? Why, they're all Beauty Secrets! Sound impossible? Want to know more details? I can't tell you here! They're secrets! But they're all revealed inside this book.
Is this book all about make-up? No way. Is this book all about physical health? Not really. This book is a wonderful combination of all the elements that make a woman beautiful from her heart and health to her style she reveals to the world.
Cat litter? How does cat litter fit into a Beauty Book? You'd be surprised! But I can't tell you! It's a SECRET!

Financially, I usually accept the standard honorarium that a Women's Ministry or church has set for a particular event. I don't have a set fee. For Sunday services, what typically happens is I will receive a set honorarium plus a love offering.
Travel-wise, if the event is out of my driving range, I would ask that one round trip airline ticket be purchased by the sponsoring group. I prefer to stay in a hotel, because it gives me time to prepare for the meetings and sessions, but I have been blessed to have stayed in some wonderful host homes. If there is not a hotel near the venue, I am completely flexible, and would be grateful for a wonderful home to sleep in!
When I speak, I also typically include some songs that tie in with my theme. Sound equipment needs are to have a hand-held microphone, a stage monitor, and screen for any DVD's that I may run. I don't use powerpoint, but would only need CD and DVD capabilities.
